French President Francois Hollande has arrived at a crisis centre set up in France's interior ministry. He called the incident clearly a "terrorist" act. He has also announced to extend the country's state of emergency by three months.

"I've also decided the state of the emergency that was supposed to be lifted on the 26th July will be extended by 3 months. This will be put before our parliament next week. Nothing will make us yield in our will to fight terrorism. We will further strengthen our actions in Iraq and in Syria. We will continue striking those who attack us on our own soil," he said.
